lyrics

“daylight today” by Joseph Stone, 2014

The city calls out to me
with promises of illuminated dreams
and I’m falling all over myself
for a taste of the good life

sometimes I wish there was a way to buy
the happiness that I long for
as I stretch out to grasp in vain
for a taste of the good life

as I’m getting older
I begin to recognize
that wisdom does not
automatically come with age

I’ve gotta grow up and stop kidding myself
because I’m the one who’s gonna have to pay
for making public indiscretions
and financial mistakes

too many years have I tried
to carry the weight of my burdens
this is not my cross to bear
it’s time to let go and fly

years have passed and the past still haunts me
as I try to raise my head above the waves
of infinite sadness and lonely abandonment
oh, I have my good and bad days

I’m getting closer
to the moment that I’ve always dreamed of
to accept the love that has always been there
and to reject the hateful lies and spiteful accusations
that I’ve placed upon myself
as I pray of daylight

I”m getting closer now, I pray
for daylight today
